It was probably the result of a tip off from another resident….

I love the way the government beat their chests about it “ Isn’t it good we have systems in place to catch these types of people”.Truth be known it has probably been going on since the first week he was locked up,years ago.

Anyway,Ian,still here but been down at Arrawarra busy painting the fisherman’s shack,all fun and games.

Painting is my pet hate,but not too bad outside,as the drips go all over the grass and the runs are harder to see than inside.

Hosing down now,it’s that wet here it’s rediculous,rained all the week before last,forecast rain for next week as well.

Fishing has been interesting,I am sure we have caught every undersized Bream swimming around in the area,nothing else.

Seems this post is on topic,useless but interesting items

Oi Fisherboi / Van Gogh , you seem to have a conscience about posting "off topic ****" Why so, may I be so bold as to ask?


Your **** is as entertaining & informative as the next Joe's & at the very least it tends to prove you are still kickin'. You are aren't you?

Or you caught the same bream multiple times.

Didn’t think of that,you are probably right

So that’s 16 hooks in the same Bream,it’s probably still swimming around but with a very sore mouth

Anyway,it was good fun.

Reminds me, you heard of the bloke who always wore his Fishing hat everywhere ?

How did you know it was his fishing hat?

It was the one with the brim on it.




Ah the olde ones are the best.

Big crowds turned out. Not putting ANZAC day in trivial!

Marched in Bendigo yesterday.

Dawns service had big crowds. Only 20 ish fainted or sat down. (Not Me ) Trivia one
Semitrailers, trucks, front end loaders, fork lifts and concrete block's are trivia 2.

It was safe to faint on the streets as the Council had blocked all street access to the location with Semitrailers, trucks, front end loaders, fork lifts and one/two tonnes concrete block's.

Didn't know I needed that much protection

Sincerely Thanks Bendigo A great effort and even a few sailors

One supposes they made some allowances for Ambulance Access? Yeah they would have wouldn't they?


Did all the Faintees/Fainters actually faint as you marched past them with medals ajingle or were they trying to keep up with you in your latest bid to beat the Bendigo 20 km run personal best record?


Were you just a blurry streak in the TV Camera's viewfinder?
